Application


  • Linseed, Baru, and Coconut Oils: NMR-Based Metabolomics, Leukocyte Infiltration Potential In Vivo, and Their Oil Characterization. Are There Still Controversies: This research utilizes NMR-based metabolomics to explore the biochemical properties of various oils, including coconut oil, and investigates their potential for leukocyte infiltration in vivo. The findings contribute to understanding the health implications and biochemical interactions of coconut oil (Figueiredo et al., 2022).
